Ages: 5 – 9 years old, 10 – 14 years old. Children are grouped by both age and ability to ensure appropriate instruction and development.
Benefits of learning on clay courts: Training on clay courts provides unique advantages for young players. The slower surface helps kids develop proper technique, control, and consistency, as rallies last longer and encourage strategic play. Clay also promotes better footwork by teaching players how to slide safely and move efficiently. In addition, the softer surface is easier on growing joints, reducing impact and helping prevent injuries. Overall, clay court training builds a strong foundation for skill development and long-term athletic growth.
Rain or Poor Air Quality: If classes are cancelled due to rain or poor air quality, we will notify you by email as soon as possible. All cancelled classes will be rescheduled and made up on the Friday of the same week. If a make-up class cannot be attended, a prorated refund will be offered.
